Facetune 2.4 for Android
- Description
Overview
Facetune is a selfie-focused photo and video editor made for quick “glow-ups”. It combines one-tap fixes with manual tools, so you can go subtle or reach full glam. It is made by Lightricks and is available on Google Play.
What you can edit
Facetune works on both photos and videos. You can do quick enhancements, then switch to detail tools. The listing highlights retouching, makeup, and hair try-ons.
Main tools
Facetune’s core is retouching. You can smooth skin, remove blemishes, brighten eyes, whiten teeth, and adjust lighting. You also get crop, sharpness, filters, and simple color tweaks.
Hair, makeup, and style
This version leans into beauty edits. You can test hairstyles and change hair color with a tap. Facetune’s own feature page says the hair color try-on is free to use.
Makeup tools help you add lipstick, blush, or a more polished “night out” look. Keep it light for realism.
Reshape and portrait edits
Facetune includes reshape-style tools. These let you nudge facial features or body lines. Used lightly, they can fix lens distortion and bad angles. Used heavily, they can look unreal fast. The best rule is “small moves, then stop”.
Video editing
Facetune is not just for still photos. The listing says you can retouch single frames or whole videos. Useful for short social clips.
A simple 60-second workflow
-
Fix exposure and warmth first. Bad lighting makes every retouch look fake.
-
Remove one or two distractions. Blemishes, flyaways, or glare spots.
-
Use a tiny amount of smoothing. Do not erase skin texture.
-
Brighten your eyes a little. Do not “laser beam” them.
-
Add a gentle filter, then reduce intensity.
-
Zoom out and check the whole face. If it screams “edited”, undo one step.
Pro tip: save a clean copy first.
Free vs paid
Facetune is free to download. It is a freemium app, so some tools and saves are limited unless you subscribe. Facetune’s FAQ mentions a weekly limit for saving edits on the free tier. On Facetune’s pricing page, subscriptions are shown starting around $25 per month, with cheaper quarterly and annual plans. Prices can change by country and store.
What changed from Facetune2
Facetune has gone through rebrands and updates. The official site notes it was previously known as Facetune2, and now covers both photo and video editing.
Privacy and data notes
The Play Store data section says the app may collect and share personal data, and that data is encrypted in transit. It also notes you can request data deletion. Review permissions and connected accounts.
Common pitfalls
Over-smoothing is the big one. Faces start to look like plastic.
Over-reshaping is the second one. It can warp backgrounds and curves. Filters can also crush skin tones. Lower the intensity and add contrast slowly.
Who it is for
Facetune fits creators, selfie lovers, and anyone who wants fast polish. It is also useful for profile photos and headshots, if you keep the edits natural. If you want “photo-real” color work, a pro editor may still be better.
Bottom line
Facetune is a fast, friendly editor for selfies, portraits, and short videos. It shines when you use it as polish, not a disguise.
